"the washington post" is the reporting the white house has develop the its own immigration reform plan more liberal than the senate outline. yes, there is a plan that the white house has. but for now, they're not unveiling it. had the bipartisan senators not acted yesterday, you likely would have seen the president offer his own

but yeah, on immigration, if immigration reform were to get done, i think republicans are even starting to realize this, it would redound mostly to the benefit of democrats. latinos are trending toward the democratic party on most issues. i think it would help republicans only marginally and democrats a lot more. it would get that issue off the table. if she were to run, which a lot of people think she will, i think she will, she is going to have a lot of successes in the previous administration to kind of push off and run. >> joy reid, great to have you on "the ed show." thank you. >> good to be here. >> a lot more coming up in the next half hour of the program. stay with us. we're coming right back. >> cut spending. >> cut spending. >> cut spending. >> cutting spending. >> republican cuts lead to an ugly new report on the economy. up next, david cay johnston on why republican obsession with austerity is hurting the country. >>> just like the villains from "scooby doo", republicans keep getting busted stealing votes. >> it would have been mine if it hadn't been for those meddling kids.
